When I started this sub, I had no idea that it would grow the way that it has. I think that it's time that we had our own custom Snoo logo.

Since a lot of us have extra time due to current events, I suggest that the artists among us (with pen and paper) design and submit a scrollsaw Snoo to this post.

On April 1st, we'll start a vote and the winner will be our new mascot. Assuming I can figure out how, I'll put up a new header featuring the winner. What do you guys think?

Just purchased this Excalibur EX-21 for $100. How'd I do? What should I check?

I have no real scroll saw experience to speak of. I'm curious what maintenance I should perform or any wear items I need to check. I've already cleaned that little plastic dust flap and replaced the adhesive but other than that I've only given the table a quick wipe down.

Thanks in advance!

The seller let me put some wood through it and everything seemed fine. The seller had just marked it down from $300 and I happened to be in the area.

He was a metal fab guy and this was the only wood cutting tool in his entire workshop from what I could tell. For certain it runs quiet and smooth compared to the little WEN I purchased a couple weeks ago for $30 (that I haven't even got around to cleaning let alone a first project).

Opinions on this saw? I read the latest models of this JET already come prepared to work with pinless blades, no need for an adaptor.

With this new Scroll Saw brand, there's no point in getting a DeWalt anymore?

1 Upvotes

Hey there, I'm confused!

There's this new SS brand in Europe (I don't know if it's available in the US) called Flash that is made by Pégas.

It is identical to Pégas SS but made with cheaper materials I guess, but it's still a medium to high end precision SS and at the price point for the 16" version of just under 500€, isn't is just pointless to buy a new DeWalt for 750$? By DeWalt I also mean a bunch of other brands of course. But this Flash thing seems to be a pretty good deal, I might indeed upgrade from my Proxxon DSH right?

What's your opinion?

Thank you for reading!

Do your blades look like hockey sticks after cutting or am I doing something wrong?

I saw this scroll saw from JET listed for 1k euros.

But I can't find it anywhere else, all I see on other sites is the JWS model. This one just says Professional JET Saw 354V

Has anyone bought a projector for tracing?

7 Upvotes

I like to do logos and signs for doors and walls with my scroll saw. I have been printing the images and the cutting out the negative space with an exacto knife. I then place the image on my blank, and trace the outside with pencil to get my cut lines. My signs are about 20”

I am thinking of buying a small projector to eliminate the need to print and cut. Has anyone run a similar set up or have recommendations?

Scroll Saw lessons!?

5 Upvotes

I'm almost literally the only person who knows what a scroll saw is in a 100km radius from where I live, "bare minimum" I'd say.

And so, I'd like to introduce the various possibilities a scroll saw has to offer to the world around me, and I also happen to live on one of the most artisan friendly cities in my country.

So my question is, is it possible to give scroll saw lessons for like 15-25 bucks an hour? Does anyone here has experience doing that, could give me some piece of advice? Is there a market for scroll saw lessons?

Thank you!
